Burgruine Vienenburg, Medieval castle ruin in Goslar, Germany.
The castle ruins include a 24-meter-high round tower with walls measuring 2.63 meters thick and remnants of the former palace structure.
Built around 1300 by Count Burchard VII of Wernigerode, the castle changed ownership multiple times between the city of Goslar and the bishops of Hildesheim.
The castle served as Wallenstein's military operations base during the Thirty Years' War, marking its role in regional military history.
Visitors can climb the renovated watchtower, which underwent restoration in 2010, to observe the surrounding landscapes of Lower Saxony.
The fortress contains a checkpoint for the Harzer Wandernadel hiking network at the base of its tower.
